ACCESS TO POLICE ESTABLISHMENTS CONFIRMED

Representatives of the Police Federation for Northern Ireland and the Retired Officers Association met with Mr Paul Leighton, Deputy Chief Constable, PSNI, earlier today to discuss issues of mutual concern, in particular, admission of retired officers to police establishments.

The meeting, which was held in a cordial manner, was productive and the two representative bodies were pleased to note the PSNI’s commitment to our retired officers and indeed our greater police family, especially our RUC GC Widows.  These re-assurances by the Deputy Chief Constable have convinced us that there is no attempt to airbrush the RUC GC out of existence as has been suggested in some quarters in recent days.

We look forward to working constructively with the Deputy Chief Constable on the important issue of access.
